That time of year
The muppets have all started school today. Their parents are walking around with happy smiles on their faces, although the kids were all in tears at the thought of the end of vacation. Older kids go back next week, then the parent partying truly begins.
I'm winding up my month at the library, and it was clear this week that the kids were desperate to get in as much last minute fun as possible. They were far more rambunctious than usual, and I had to tell several of them to calm down, which I normally don't have to do.
Although there are still a few summer people around, we noticed last night that there was very little noise in the street. Our good friends who have holiday homes are all gone now, which is very sad, because we'd like them to stay all year round.
On the positive side for us, that means M. B, whose house we're trying to buy for Mom, is due back from his vacation, so we can hopefully get that straightened out soon as well.
The weather is continuing its indecision; going from massively hot earlier this week back to cloudy/rainy/cool today. None of us know where we stand from one day to the next.
I guess even Mother Nature is having mixed feelings at this time of year.
Ciao for now.

We are so backwards! My daughter is always thrilled to go back to school and see her friends and I'm always sad that I don't get to spend as much time with her.
On the other hand, I remember my mom and her friends spending the first day of school going out to breakfast, shopping, lunch, and then more shopping!!
